Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 535
After deliberation from the jury, the judge said, "You may proceed."
Ted looked Stella straight in the eyes and said, "Ms. Jewell, from your background profile, we can see that you graduated from
acting at Trinity University three years ago with the highest distinction. Yet, you were unemployed. Can you tell us what you have
been doing for the past three years?"
Marshall frowned. The other party obviously came prepared. Keegan looked sullen while Ted tried to divert the case to public
opinion. Stella looked at Ted without fear and said, "Does my life after graduating have anything to do with today's case?"
Ted paused and said, "Not for now."
'Then I refuse to answer that question.'
'The plaintiff has the right not to answer questions that are unrelated to the case at hand. You may ask another question, Mr.
Eldrich."
Ted nodded and asked the second question. "According to the documents, Ms. Jewell, your mother was bedridden." He paused
for a while and continued, 'You must've been sad, right?"
Stella scowled after hearing that. 'What kind of bullshit question is this dude asking? If we weren't in court, I would have asked
you if you would be sad if your mom were lying in the hospital bed 24/7!'
"Relevance, your honor," Marshall said solemnly. The judge allowed the ruling, and Ted proceeded to ask a third question.
'Ms. Jewell, did you have an assessment for your depression before July of last year?"
Stella pursed her lips and replied after a long time, "No."
Ted smirked and said, "Ms. Jewell's mother had been ill in bed all year round. Ms. Jewell was sad about the matter and fell into a
dark state. According to the data shown here, Ms. Jewell's mother's condition turned critical in June of last year. Ms. Spade also
had a history of depression, so we have reason to believe that Ms. Jewell's mental health was due to her mother's critical state,
excessive stress, and genetics. It has nothing to do with my client's comments.'
"Objection!" Marshall said with a sullen face. "My client's mother, Ms. Spade, was admitted to the hospital in a car accident
seven years ago and was diagnosed to be in a coma. If Ms. Jewell's depression was hereditary, why did it take six years to

surface? There's also no reliable source to show that depression can be caused by genetics."
The public gallery began to burst into a discussion at that moment. Ted's questions had opened up Stella's scar to the public.
The two girls who were fans of Bella behind Keegan were aware of the situation and immediately felt that there was hope for a
comeback. "Did she really think she could win this case by saying that she has depression? Hah! Everyone is depressed
nowadays. How stupid of her to say that the mean comments caused her to be depressed."
'Her mother was in a coma after a car accident and has been in the hospital for so many years. Where does she get her money
from if she was unemployed for these three years?"
'Where else would she get her money? With that face of hers, I'm sure guys would gladly pay for her services. I mean, how clean
could she be with all that plastic in her face?"
As soon as they said that, Keegan suddenly got up and kicked the chair behind him. The two girls screamed in fright, which
alerted the bailiffs in the courtroom.
